So, after a while away from CS while spending the last 18Months restoring my Renault 5 GT Turbo, I am back.....
You might remember the last Kangoo project My Kangoo Cup Dci Build Thread
It starts again, with a slightly different spin on it this time.
I now have a 2003 (53) facelift Kangoo DCI...
So, I am in e middle of converting my 2005 dci kangoo van to 172. It runs fine, but I have the oil pressure light on and the battery light on when the engine is running. I have oil pressure, and I have 14.4 - 14.7 volts ad the battery when it is running. Any ideas? Both the alternator and oil...
Folks, I hope someone might be able to help.
I am getting organised before my 172 swap in my DCI kangoo, and need the following to check a few things.
172 engine wiring diagram
172 dash / interior wiring diagram
Clio Dci / Kangoo Engine Wiring Diagram
Clio Dci / Kangoo dash / interior wiring...
Had a search, but cannot find the answer.
Does anybody know the difference between passenger side drive shafts on the PH1 vs PH2?
I know the phase 2 drivers side has an intermediate bearing, and the phase 1 is single piece, just wanting to know if the passenger side shafts are the same...
Well, it begins.
After needing good fuel economy and a small van, the 172 has basically been replaced with a face lift Kangoo SL17 Dci70+ Van.
Its a great little van, 2005, tidy enough, great on fuel etc, but need to stop myself from getting bored of it.
I am glad I managed to get a Dci+ for...
Morning folks.
Not to sure if this is in the right section really.....
Anyway, I now also have a Dci.
I am going to convert the front end to 172, and need to find a list of parts I Need to do this, so and advice would be great, and here is the list i have at the moment.
172 lower arms + ball...
I was driving the 172 tonight, turned the aircon on and a strange smell came through the vents, so I stopped, gave the car a few minutes, now it will not start, it will turn over, but slowly and sounds totally different when trying to start, like a slow electric motor. It also smells like hot...
I have had my Gaz coilovers on for a while now, and am happy apart from a bit of under steer.
I have just fitted a whiteline anti roll bar kit, and it does handle better, but still loads of understeer before it will oversteer.
Any ideas how to dial out a bit of understeer?
Rear dampers...
Fitted these today, they seem a daft/poor design.
They do not locate anywhere so they move and knock, and the top of my Gaz coilover is touching the underside of my bonnet because the mounts are so much sorter than the factory assembly.
Any ideas before I take them off tonight?
Hi folks,
This is the start of my build thread.
Nothing to extreme, fast road / track setup.
It will be chassis biased, I am not hunting for engine performance figures.
The first big changes will be starting this week, I have a week off work and a large pile of parts and gadgets ;)...
Just picked up my 1993 valver / williams hybrid about a week ago.
second valver, just sold my 7th 5 GT turbo, french all the way.
Anyhow, thanks for any help and advice in advance.
Ash.
1992, willy blue, gold speedline 15`s, lowered, full engine re-build with a few added mods, Std inside and out. No rust (which is strange for a valver).
Not to sure what I should be asking for. The engine has only done 3K.
Well after I had problems with it spluttering, I did a compression test on it today, one wet plug, cylinder 3 was down over the rest so started stripping it.
Is it a massive job on the clios? the 5 turbos are simple but there is less space on the clios.
Time to get some head work done to...
Hi, My 1992 valver is spluttering under load 80% of the time due to (what I think is) over/under fueling. The plug on cylinder 3 after a run is wet with fuel.
Changed the plugs, Fuel filter, Injectors and am still getting the problem.
Can anyone think of what could be causing this? I have...
